Pros & Cons
Pros
This has to be the cheapest way to get replacement blades.
They come well packaged. They are well packaged, wrapped in brown paper with just enough oil. The first thing that will go, usually, is the tip.
Cons
The blades are way to oily and are so dull they rip paper even with the gentlest touch. They are not razor sharp as all the past blades i purchased. Even when used on cardboard, any pressure down on the tip is comically weak.
Space age lamination and all that cannot hide the fact that the x-acto x-iife is dull, provides a grainy cut, wears out really fast, and the tips (the most important part of the blade) break off quickly. Terrible considering xacto used to make these b... Read More

Super nice hobby blades at a decent price.

I typically sharpen my blades on a wet stone to save money.

Packaging/appearance
They are well packaged, wrapped in brown paper with just enough oil.
Listed online and marked as 100 blades on the sticker, but the package clearly states it contains only 40 blades.
It also says china on the back of the package.
The ones in the tiny black plastic box.
Competitiveness
Amazing the difference from “off brand “ blades
Compared to others i’ve used, these have been the sharpest and highest quality blades.
These may cost more but the metal is a a more durable temper (can be sharpened too) and they are sharper and stay sharper than ... Read More
